Chapter 305: The Banquet of the Princes
There is a smell of gunsmoke in the air, which only a discerning person can keenly perceive.
"Huangfu Wuji has always been very deep in the city government, and he treats everything indifferently, why does he seem to care a little about this old age?"
Shen Xudong muttered in his heart, looking at Gu Chen thoughtfully.
"Your Majesty, the ceremony is about to begin, so you can't delay the hour. ”
The eunuch beside Emperor Yanghong whispered, and the emperor nodded, ignoring Gu Chen, and walked towards the altar in a hurry.
As the heir of the Emperor of Heaven, Gu Chen would not salute the Son of Heaven in Middle Earth, and the Emperor naturally would not lower his face and take the initiative to show favor to him.
The emperor passed between the hundred officials, and everyone retreated to the sides, followed by many members of the royal family.
Crown Prince Ji Zefang passed by Gu Chen's side, smiled and nodded to him.
And not far behind him, a shadow came into Gu Chen's eyes, making his cold face soften a little.
It's Ji Lanchu, she is wearing a palace dress today, lined with the world's most beautiful face, and she is a little more noble.
It's just that she seems to have lost some weight, and obviously these days are not easy.
When Gu Chen saw her, she had actually noticed Gu Chen, with a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth.
Although Gu Chen was not true at the moment, she knew that he was him.
She passed by him, and Gu Chen's divine sense transmitted. "What can I help you?"
Ji Lanchu's footsteps couldn't help but pause, and a mist rose faintly in his eyes.
She stopped talking, but in the end she didn't say anything and continued to walk forward.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Gu Chen was silent.
He didn't know what was going on in her heart.
Emperor Yanghong ascended the altar and began the tedious ritual of worshiping the heavens, praying for the peace of the country and the people, and the wind and rain.
After the ceremony was completed, the banquet officially began, and everyone on the scene was seated in turn according to the pattern of the banquet of the hundred officials, the banquet of the princes, and the banquet of the heroes.
Gu Chen separated from Shen Guoshi and walked towards the position of the Zhuzi Banquet.
The feast of the sons was the smallest of the people, with only one table.
And one table, there are only five people in total.
Participating in the Princes' Banquet can obtain the qualification to enter the Ten Thousand Dragons Secret Land with the descendants of the royal family, and the Ten Thousand Dragons Secret Land is a vital place for the Middle-earth royal family, and it is naturally difficult to obtain this qualification.
It's not just about talent, it's about some special things.
Except for Gu Chen, it was because the emperor made an exception to have a quota for the princes' banquet, and the other four people present were all very promising.
Huangfu Qingming is a member of the Zhuzi Banquet, as the Tianjiao of Kyushu and the concubine of the future royal family, he is naturally qualified to have a seat.
When Gu Chen arrived, Huangfu Qingming was already sitting there, pouring himself a drink, and his green ox was lying lazily on the ground.
In addition, the other three Gu Chen didn't know each other, and the only one who was more familiar was the sick scholar who had followed the prophet of the family before.
Seeing Gu Chen coming, the three of them couldn't help but glance at him, and the sick scholar said hello with a smile.
As for Huangfu Qingming, he didn't raise his head, as if he didn't have him in his eyes!
Gu Chen nodded with the scholar and sat down beside him.
"Brother Chen, Jiang Yu of the Xia Jiang family, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
The sick scholar took the initiative to introduce himself.
"Chen Gu. ”
Gu Chen's temperament was indifferent, and his answer was very concise.
Jiang Yu didn't care, and spoke lightly.
Four of the five people present are silent, only Jiang Yu is smiling, and from time to time he has a few words with this one and a few words with that.
Treating Jiang Yu, others don't dare to slack off, even Huangfu Qingming will answer his questions.
This person is the great-great-grandson of the prophet of the Jiang family, and it is said that he has inherited the astrology hand inherited from generation to generation of the Jiang family.
It is worth mentioning that the Jiang family's astrology game is one of the seven super-first-class physiques known to the Kunlun Continent, which is comparable to Gu Chen's Heavenly Tyrant Bone ranking, but the field of study is different.
And the Huangfu Qingming on the opposite side is an innate Dao body, and it is also a super-first-class physique!
There are five people at a table, counting the unknown Gu Chen, who actually has three super-first-class physiques.
This situation can only occur at the banquet of the princes of the Middle-earth Empire.
At the beginning of the banquet, the table was full of plates of delicacies, but the five of them did not move their chopsticks much.
Only the white ape jumped off Gu Chen's shoulder, looked at a bunch of delicacies, and was not polite, grabbing the chopsticks and sending the vegetables to his mouth, looking beautiful.
This scene attracted the attention of the other four, and there was a trace of disdain in Huangfu Qingming's eyes.
"Brother Chen, I heard that this white ape has a great background, not only has great magical powers, but also makes the Nanling Demon Clan treat it differently, I don't know what bloodline it is?"
Jiang Yu asked curiously.
"It's just a monkey that I picked up by chance in the mountains, and it's very greedy, and I don't know. ”
Gu Chen said casually.
"Squeak!"
When the white ape heard this, he immediately protested a few times, but his mouth was stuffed with food, and even his cry was indistinct.
"Oh, in this way, Brother Chen can be regarded as an adventure, where does ordinary people have the opportunity to get this kind of spirit beast with extraordinary qualifications. ”
Jiang Yu looked at Huangfu Qingming with emotion, "Brother Chen and Brother Huangfu are really outstanding people, not only did the two of you attract visions of heaven and earth when you broke through, but even this luck is just as prosperous." ”
"Brother Huangfu went to the Eastern Wilderness not long ago, and I heard that there are also strange beasts who take the initiative to recognize you as the master, presumably it is this green cow, right?"
Jiang Yu's words made the other two guests show envious looks, not to mention that this is really the case, these two people are geniuses who can trigger the vision of heaven and earth, and the two spirit beasts that follow them look very extraordinary.
When Huangfu Qingming heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was being compared to Gu Chen, which made him a little unhappy.
"Different spirit beasts, but they are very different. ”
He scoffed.
"Oh, listen to Brother Huangfu, there is something very extraordinary about your green cow?"
Jiang Yu became interested.
"That's nature, ordinary demon beasts usually can't even control their appetites, and their wisdom is low, but this green cow has lived for endless years, and it has long been out of the level of ordinary demon beasts. ”
His words were clearly mocking the white ape's greed, and when the white ape heard about it, he picked up the empty plate and smashed it directly into his face!
Huangfu Qingming's face changed, he didn't expect this monkey to dare to be so rude to him!
"Look for death!"
His eyes were cold, and the saucer came to him, and it was directly twisted into powder by the invisible force!
He wanted to teach the white ape a lesson, but at this time, Gu Chen spoke flatly.
"I'm sorry for the son of the Huangfu family, my monkey has a stubborn temperament, I have been with some cats and dogs for a long time on weekdays, and I always love to do it with them, and I have developed a habit, don't go to my heart. ”
His words seemed to be persuading, but Huangfu Qingming was furious when he heard it.
Take care of Chen, he has lost his demeanor when he does it with this monkey, but if he doesn't do it, he is also a cat and a dog!
Huangfu Qingming's expression couldn't help but be very gloomy, and at this time, the green cow lying behind him was finally alarmed and slowly opened his eyes.
"Where did you come from, how dare you be so presumptuous to my master?"
It has a pair of dark red pupils, wise and vicissitudes.
"You, you, you, why are you here?"
Qingniu saw the appearance of the white ape clearly, and was suddenly startled, the original turbulent momentum was so converging that there was nothing left!
